Escudero: Where did the P137B for Yolanda rehab go? I didn't see it

Then chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance and now defeated Vice Presidential candidate Francis Escudero on 2014, questioned the handling of the P137-billion that Congress earlier set aside for the rehabilitation and reconstruction in areas affected by supertyphoon Yolanda.The former senator said he didn't see where the funds have gone, and would like to know how it was spent.“I have to ask them (Palace) naubos na ba nila yung P137 billion. Ganun na ba kalaki ang nagastos natin sa Yolanda affected areas?" Escudero said in a news forum at the Senate."Quite frankly, I don’t see, it , I don’t feel it and certainly the people in Region 8 don’t see it and feel it either,” he added. According to Escudero, In 2014, P37 billion was alloted for rehabilitation, while P100 billion was included in the 2014 national budget.
